FAQ
What should I do if I see an insufficient space message while saving?
- Check whether your iPhone or iPad has enough local storage space.
- Remove unneeded files and try saving again.
- If local space is limited, save to Cloud Docs or another cloud storage service instead.
- Make sure the target cloud location also has enough available capacity.
What should I do if the file looks incomplete or seems unsaved after I open it?
- First confirm that you opened the correct file or the correct copy.
- Search for the file name from the WPS home page search box to check whether it was saved to another location.
- Make sure the signed-in account matches the account used when the file was saved.
- If the file is stored in Cloud Docs or a cloud drive, confirm that the network connection is working and wait for syncing to finish.
How can I view the file on different devices?
- During Save or Save As, choose Cloud Docs, iCloud Drive, or another cloud drive service that supports syncing.
